Itinerary

The Shard is an iconic, landmark building designed by the renowned architect Renzo Piano. Soaring to 1,016ft (310m), the Shard is the tallest building in Western Europe and is now an important feature of London’s skyline.

The view from the Shard is a breathtaking experience. You’ll reach the levels via high-speed elevators that build anticipation, excitement and exhilaration. On Level 69, London past, present and future is laid out before you and brought to life in multimedia displays and installations. You’ll especially enjoy the excellent viewing telescopes.

On Level 72, you’ll have the most extreme experience as you’re exposed to the elements and sounds of the city beneath. You’ll also have the chance to look up to the shards of glass that form the top of the sculptural building as they disappear upwards further into the sky.

You’ll exit via a small boutique on Level 68 prior to descending in the elevators back to the reception. There, you’ll have the opportunity to browse the main boutique as well as purchase a souvenir photograph.

The entire experience is enjoyed at your leisure, queue and crowd free with no time restriction on your stay.

Enjoy garden delights while taking in breathtaking views of the capital from the London's highest summer garden, which is open at the skydeck until 18th September, 2016. The garden has 1500 flowers, 1900 litres of soil and over 80 snails.
